Call for Submissions: Sin Fronteras/Writers Without Borders Journal

Sin Fronteras/Writers Without Borders Journal, based in Las Cruces, New Mexico, is accepting submissions now, until June 30. There’s no need to wait until the last minute!

What are we looking for? Previously unpublished work of good quality, on a variety of topics and in a variety of styles. We like poems about borders, including but not limited to our own border with Mexico. And not only geographical borders. We like a bit of Spanish, even a pair of poems, one in Spanish, one in English, as long as both are your own work. (Two people could submit together) We like free verse and we like forms, as long as they are done well. A poem longer than two journal pages (about 70 lines) would have to be very good indeed and shorter prose has a better chance than a piece pushing the 3,000-word limit.

We accept submissions by email or snail mail. For full guidelines and addresses, see our blog.

  • For email submissions, here are some things to remember: Send submissions as a single email attachment. Word (.doc or .docx) works best for us.
  • Include contact information in the document, as well as in the body of the email.
  • Include your name in the name of the file.
  • Put “Submission – poetry” or “Submission – prose” in the subject line of your email.
